unsurprisingly, 78% of the kid chose the chocolate, and just 22% chose the broccoli. but when they put an elmo sticker on the broccoli, and a sticker of an unknown cartoon character on the chocolate, 50% of the kid chose the broccoli and 50% chose the chocolate. so, that little elmo sticker added 28 percentage points to broccoli. the power of elmo. as for profitability, just ask the folks at birds eye vegetables. the launch launched a major marketing campaign featuring characters from i-carly, and they're sales have jumped 37%. pedal ya unions did a campaign with some wreck, and their sales went up 50%. turned out after kids saw the ads for healthy foods they went and begged their parents to buy them. so the good news here is there is real meaningful evidence we can actually get our kids excited about eating healthy. yes. [applause] >> yes, we can. but in the end we also know it's not enough to simply change the way our children eat. we have to change our own habits and behaviors as well. and this is the final point i want to make today. we as parents are our children

but we had 22% unemployment. very high in some parts. most unemployment was reaching on average well over 15%. as veterans came back from the war, and we were already producing at 100%, here come all the veterans. and of course, -- mellon does a study of tax revenue, and he says, you know, looks like tax revenues have been declining a little bit. why are tax revenues declining in and in the study, he found that tax rates had gone up steadily, and yet everytime the tax rate went up more, the revenues declined a little bit more from that group. and he concluded that, you know, it might be better to actually lower tax rates and the government would get more money. it's an early version of the last -- there's two points on the curve at which the government will get no money and 100%. nobody is going to give 100% of their check so mellon makes an argument for lowering taxes and then we get down to an astounding 1.6% unemployment. now, a president today who could get 1.6% unemployment, they just blew up mt. rushmore and just put him up there.

charlie rose was one of the first to say what he believes. and it is your job to go know and did that stuff up. he wasn't vetted on any of this stuff and to a large degree still has not been that a lot of this stuff. that is a shame because if we don't know how you can sit in reverend wright's church for 20 years and not hear what the man had to say or how you can reference by bill ayers and not have an opinion on what should happen with bombers. this was the economy of martin van buren's system. why i use that? comes full circle. this is back to the partisan press. in this case the press overwhelmingly is liberal, democratic you want to use that phrase, there is the minority voice press, fox news, rush limbaugh and so on and so forth but it is a minority voice, and the phrase low information voter, low information voters are not going to hear a lot of that information. >> host: jack, dear harbor, washington, thanks for holding, you are on with professor and author larry weicker. -- larry schweikart. >> caller: a long wait but worth it. i hav
